Average person's perception....

[Robin Blankenship]

David,
What is the winter sky like in San Fran? I lived for a year in San Diego. We
didn't have a winter sky. Then again, we didn't have a winter, either. On
the mid-East Coast, a winter sky means low, gloomy overcast. A pale gray. A
bleak scan of bare trees. Upturned soil in the fields. Stubble. Brown. Calm.
Cold.

Robin
